Discipline and Sunday groups
A free training video to use with your children's or youth team to explore discipline in church groups.
It is common to struggle with managing the behaviour of the children or young people who come to your church group. There are many factors which might cause children not to engage as you’d like them to. How can we manage behaviour effectively so that all the children and young people in our group have the opportunity to connect with God – the ultimate point of our sessions?
This is a 16-minute training video that you can use with your team to initiate conversation about managing the behaviour of those in your group. Presented by Becky Sedgwick, it is accompanied by handouts to help you and your volunteers as you discuss this issue.
There are many ways you could use this video:
- organise an in-person training event (perhaps over Sunday lunch after church, or one evening with pizza), show this video and use the questions on the handout to initiate discussion
- gather your team over Zoom, show the video and discuss
- send the video link to your team via WhatsApp or similar, ask for their thoughts
- send the video link out, then meet up (either in person or over Zoom) to hear people’s thoughts
